UPDATE

Here is the official piece of news on the website of the University of Turin: https://www.unitonews.it/index.php/it/news_detail/coronavirus-sospesa-lattivita-didiattica.
The goal of this course of Semiotics of Religious Cultures is to provide students with an in-depth comprehension of the notions of person and personhood.
By adopting a semiotic perspective, we will analyze these concepts as they were developed across centuries, in different types of discourses and textual genres; from religious and theological to normative and judicial discourse, from ethic and scientific to artistic discourse.
The course is organized as a seminar, with the participation of researchers and scholars who will present different aspects of the notion of person.
The seminar will start on February 24th, 2020. The lectures will be held in Aula 7, “Palazzo Nuovo”, via S. Ottavio 20, Turin, H. 14.00-16.00.

NeMoSanctI is a research project carried out at the University of Turin. It studies how models of sanctity have changed after the Second Vatican Council. To this end, it applies a pioneering methodology based on semiotic theory to a wide corpus of normative, judicial, and narrative texts.
This project has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement No 757314).
